How freakish is your body?

Pretty freaky, I must tell you.

I can pop my shoulder sockets. Maybe one day I can use it to free myself from a straight-jacket.

Yes.
Yes, but I think I’ll pass on this one.
Yes.
Quite a few – all the joints in my fingers, my toes, wrists, elbows, knees, back, ankles. Can’t crack my neck though, no matter how hard I try.
Never tried it, but I don’t think I could.
No.
Maybe.
Yes.

Also, I used to be able to hold my hands behind my back and bring them to my front without letting my hands go. I told my mom that I cold get out of handcuffs if I ever needed to. She said that she couldn’t be any more proud. I was nine.

<———-Non-freakish body.

Nothing hangs low.
Nothing wobbles to or fro.
Nothing tied in a knot.
Nothing tied in a bow.
Nothing thrown over my shoulder while I sing a happy tune.
Not a thing
hangs
low.

I’m pretty sure my spine is curved inwards at the bottom!

@aprilsimnel I learned to sing it “Can you throw it over your shoulder like a Continental soldier?”

I can pop my toes on their own. I can also crack my neck by leaning my head to it’s side. I also have monkey toes. Beware!

can do fish lips too

@jonsblond – AAAAHH! Trout mouth! ::runs::

@jonsblond: What are monkey toes? o_O
@Allie: me too!

Am I the only one who has never tried to suck on my toes? Why would you do that, Zack? And what do your toes taste like?

@La_chica_gomela Monkey toes- picking up objects with your toes. Or considered laziness ;)

aaah, I get it. Ooh, I have one kind of like that! I used to press the buttons on my CD player with my big toe when I used the piano-only tracks to practice being accompanied while I played the violin.

@La_chica_gomela That’s monkey toe in my book. Welcome! :)

I’m just very hairy, and I can apparently do something in bed which girls find (pleasantly) uncommon. I can bend my nose to the left (but not the right) and can play with a pen between my fingers (a useless skill from my drum-playing days).

I can “crack/pop” every joint in my body

Can you touch your toes? yes
Can you suck on your toes? no
Can you pull your fingers back? no
Can you pop any joints? my fingers of course..
Can you tie yourself into a pretzel? no, but now i’m hungry… and… horny..odd
Can you jump rope with yourself? um… no
Can you turn your neck at weird angles? huh? i guess not
Can you bring your foot behind your ear? no way
Can you touch the tip of your nose with your tongue? no
Can you spread your toes like fingers? no
Can you dig it? yup

Can you touch your toes? Not without help.
Can you suck on your toes? I have someone to do that for me.
Can you pull your fingers back? Not on purpose.
Can you pop any joints? I’ve never tried and I’m afraid to start now.
Can you tie yourself into a pretzel? No, but I’d like to find a woman who can tie herself into one.
Can you jump rope with yourself? Just the sound of this question makes me cringe.
Can you turn your neck at weird angles? No. My chiropractor can though and that S.O.B. is a sadist.
Can you bring your foot behind your ear? I’m starting to cringe again.

Can you touch your toes? Absolutely.. I can stretch about 18 inches past my toes (despite the fact that my wingspan is shorter than my height)
Can you suck on your toes? I know I have the ability, but I don’t do it
Can you pull your fingers back? No, and the thought of it makes me queezy
Can you pop any joints? Fingers, toes, wrists, hips (in and out from my body, which according to the doctor is impossible – but obviously it’s not because I can do it), knees, ankles, neck
Can you tie yourself into a pretzel? I did this once when I wass about 8 and got stuck because of my freakish hips (see above^)so I haven’t tried it since
Can you jump rope with yourself? Absolutely not, and I would never try…
Can you turn your neck at weird angles? Somewhat
Can you bring your foot behind your ear? Isn’t that part of the whole pretzel thing?

@NaturalMineralWater Lurve for the pretzel answer

All of that stuff sounds too painful to even try.

Can you touch your toes? Yes
Can you suck on your toes? Yes. But I don’t make a habit of it or anything.
Can you pull your fingers back? All the way.
Can you pop any joints? Over half of them.
Can you tie yourself into a pretzel? Used to.
Can you jump rope with yourself? Anyone who can is not…normal.
Can you turn your neck at weird angles? Yes
Can you bring your foot behind your ear? Not anymore, I haven’t really tried since I was 7.
Can you touch the tip of your nose with your tongue? Yep. :)
Can you spread your toes like fingers? Yes.
Can you dig it? Like dirt.

I have more!

My knees and my elbows are hyperflexsive, but I’m afraid it’s a visual thing. You’ll just have to take my word for the fact that it looks pretty freaky.

I cannot do any of the things on your list. Not a single one.

I can “reach”.

i learned thru a combination of yoga and watching my dogs

If i bend backwards at a certain angle, a rib will poke out of my stomach. Kinda looks like an alien trying to get out :P

^awesome.

raaaaaaaaaaawr belly spawn!
rawr!

i mean this cant be normal

i try not to do it too often though cause i can feel it scratching against my insides lol

@uberbatman Um… have you ever had that looked at? Lurve for the uniqueness, but that would creep me out a bit if one of my friends showed me something like that.

@dlm812 i asked about it when i was a kid, the doctor told me it was just my floating rib and anyone could do this if they bent the same way i do. Ive never met anyone else thats able to do it though, so unno.

That. Is. Sick. :D
It does look like a floating rib, just seems like it’s a bit longer, or at an odd angle compared to normal ribs. If I knew you in person, I would make you stick that sucker out all the time. Next time you get xrays, share them with the class.

I spy a nipple piercing!

@asmonet its at an odd angle, depending on how i move, it will stick out at different angles, and then roll back into place usually making a noise(the sound of the rib scratching my insides) lol

i should ask Dr Shi about this :)

okay, now it freaks me out. if it just poked out…fine. BUT YOURS MAKES SOUND EFFECTS AND WIGGLES. don’t ever apply for a government job. not that you would, with your hobbies. ;)

I think uberbatman wins this thread. Just sayin’ ya’ll.

Agreed.

Agreed.
Everything else seems so pedestrian in comparison. Goodness!

Uber always wins. The end.

It looks like an alien trying to pop out of there.

hmmmmm should i be honored or not that i have the most freakish body? LOL

Perversely honoured.

w00t

<<applause>>

Speech! Speech!

I just want to poke it.

Haha. That’s what I wanted to do when I saw it too, asmonet.

@uberbatman – Whoa!

@Allie: That’s because we are both made of win. uber is made of more of it though. thats the extra bit sticking out.

@asmonet You are most definitely made of win. :D

I can touch my shoulder blades together, pop my shoulders out of their sockets, crack my knuckles, wrists, neck, and back. :)

I feel left out. My body isn’t that flexible. The only thing I can do is move my thumb all the way back.
